The overhauled form of iOS 9.3.1 is accessible now through the Settings application on an iPhone or iPad, or however iTunes on a Windows or OS X PC. It alters an issue brought about by maverick outsider applications that over-burden one of the center segments of iOS that handles joins inside applications from Safari, Mail and Messages to some outsider applications.

The issue was bound to applications, including Booking.com, utilizing huge arrangements of URLs inside of Apple's Universal Links framework, which lets applications assert certain URLS and open them inside of the application as opposed to Safari. Case in point, if a client tapped on a theguardian.com interface, and had the Guardian application introduced, that connection would open the Guardian application as a matter of course, instead of burden the Guardian site in Safari.

The issue was highlighted by clients upgrading to iOS 9.3, which propelled 21 March, making iOS re-index the connections and their relationship with applications over all outsider, Universal Link-utilizing applications introduced on the telephone.
